Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli categories among the traditional enteropathogenic E. coli O serogroups--a review.
The so called enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) O serogroups include typical and atypical EPEC, enterohaemorrragic E. coli, enterotoxigenic E. coli, and enteroaggregative E. coli. The aim of this article is to review the composition of each O serogroup and the major serotypes, clones, and additional virulence characteristics of each of these diarrheagenic categories. Their adherence patt...
متن کاملThe T3SS Effector EspT Defines a New Category of Invasive Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) Which Form Intracellular Actin Pedestals
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) strains are defined as extracellular pathogens which nucleate actin rich pedestal-like membrane extensions on intestinal enterocytes to which they intimately adhere. EPEC infection is mediated by type III secretion system effectors, which modulate host cell signaling. Recently we have shown that the WxxxE effector EspT activates Rac1 and Cdc42 leading to...
متن کاملGenetic relationship of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes among the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli O serogroup.
The genetic relationship among the Escherichia coli pathotypes was investigated. We used random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) data for constructing a dendrogram of 73 strains of diarrheagenic E. coli. A phylogenetic tree encompassing 15 serotypes from different pathotypes was constructed using multilocus sequence typing data. Phylogram clusters were used for validating RAPD data on the clona...
متن کاملOligonucleotide probe for detection of the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) adherence factor of localized adherent EPEC.
The enteropathogenic Escherichia coli adherence factor (EAF) probe detects isolates of enteropathogenic E. coli that exhibit localized adherence to HEp-2 cells. A 21-base oligonucleotide probe was constructed on the basis of a sequence from within the 1-kb EAF probe and was shown to have greater sensitivity and specificity than the EAF fragment probe in detecting localized adherent E. coli.
متن کاملA STUDY OF SALMONELLA, SHIGELLA AND ENTEROPATHOGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI SEROTYPES IN ACUTE GASTROENTERITIS CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE
In this study, it has been our purpose to isolate and serotype enteropathogenic E. coli, salmonella and shigella and determine their resistance to antibiotics. 502 swab specimens were collected during mid-July to midNovember. 1986. from two children's hospitals in Tenran. From 502 cultured specimens. 108 specimens were positive for salmonella. shigella and enteropathogenic E. coli. corresp...
